Finding Neverland

Three and one half stars
Johnny Depp, Kate Winslet

This was a wonderful movie in most every respect. A story based in reality regarding a beloved tale with a creative exposition of the plot. The supporting cast was excellent and executed thier jobs beautifully.

The only thing that kept me from granting this film a four star rating was the overuse of artful forshadowing. The climax of the film is impending for quite some time and there are several instances that lead you to belive that a poetic end has come to the film. There were enough that when that ultimate poetic end arrives, it was less distinct and powerful than it night have been otherwise.
